It is a great track, it really is.

I haven't raced much since about 02 or so but if the regulars that were there then are still running, it is a VERY difficult track to win at. The regulars are some serious racers and damn good. I finished in the money a lot but never could win a class.

The annual Mopar show is pretty good. More of a race than a car show.


I want my fair share

Great race, great people, great track...Plenty of pit area, pretty nice facility...The racing is very good. Its one of my local track, and its were everyone posts there best E/T for all you e/t chasers.
Last year IMO the show was feeling the high gas price crunch on the long travelers, but this year it think it will be better.
Plenty of Hemi cars, Max Wedge cars, KOS,/6's..You name it.

Larry and Lonnie Smith owns the black and red Plymouth on the flier.
It looks like the Madia Bros SS hemi car from Decatur,IL in the early 70's ? Is it the original car ?

No doubt its the Madia brothers car. Wayne County on the front fender is a dead give away!
